Chapter 87 Are You Really Innocent?

Before I could say anything, Meng Zicheng had already taken Shen Yixiao's phone and was very loyal to take the blame for his brother, "Sister-in-law, I was just taking pictures for fun. When I checked the photos just now, I found that you and Xu Zhengnan were talking in the photos, so..."

"Meng Zicheng." I interrupted Meng Zicheng, with an unprecedentedly cold attitude, "Do you think I'm stupid?"

Meng Zicheng was choked and couldn't utter a word for a long time.

This method failed, so Shen Yixiao had to take the phone again and continued to explain, "Wife, that photo was actually sent to me by Secretary Lu. She said she bought some bread and saw you talking to a strange man when she came out of the store. She was worried that there was something wrong with our relationship, so she asked me specifically."

Such a lame explanation, but he said it so naturally.

I didn't listen to him and asked directly, "Is Secretary Lu with you now? Let her answer the phone. I want to ask her in person."

Of course, Shen Yixiao would never admit that Lu Xiaoyun was next to him, let alone let her answer my call.

He tried every way to put me off and didn't care about my meeting with Xu Zhengnan.

In the end, he was the one who hung up the phone first. I looked at the ended screen, and there was only cold hatred in my heart.

I sent another message to Liang Feng: Are you sure Lu Xiaoyun didn’t see my mother? Shen Yixiao doesn’t know?

Liang Feng: Well, Lu Xiaoyun just went to buy some things by herself and came back to tell Shen Yixiao.

Fortunately, my mother was sitting in the back seat, so she really couldn’t be seen in that photo. It should be that Lu Xiaoyun happened to see Xu Zhengnan and I together, so she quickly took out her phone to take a picture and show it to Shen Yixiao.

Only then did I feel relieved and drove home.

Shen Yixiao was already waiting for me at home, looking like he was going to accuse me, "Why don't you explain it to me? Why did it happen so coincidentally that you met Xu Zhengnan?"

"Then you should also explain to me why Secretary Lu took a picture of me and sent it to you so coincidentally?" I threw my bag and asked back very coldly.

Shen Yixiao was a little angry and embarrassed, "Have you had enough of the trouble? Lu Xiaoyun is my secretary, and it's normal for me to take her out for dinner and socialize, so it's also normal for her to tell me about this matter at the first time. What about you? You and Xu Zhengnan haven't seen each other for many years, and now that he has returned to China, you run into each other from time to time. It's totally abnormal!"

Looking at his angry expression, I prayed in my heart, hoping that he would get more and more angry and then take the initiative to file for divorce. I would definitely agree to it immediately and sign my name.

But Shen Yixiao was reluctant to say what I wanted, and he refused to mention it even when he was angry.

This made me very disappointed. I didn't want to talk to him any more, so I just went upstairs to take a shower.

Shen Yixiao followed me upstairs. My cold and indifferent attitude towards him made him feel very unhappy and unaccustomed. He attributed my change to the appearance of Xu Zhengnan.

"You still like him, right?" He stood in front of me, his eyes full of hidden anger.

People who don’t know might think that I was the one who cheated in this marriage.

"I don't know what you are talking about, Shen Yixiao. If you really doubt me that much, you can find a way to check my relationship with Xu Zhengnan to see if it is as ambiguous as you said. On the contrary, are you and Lu Xiaoyun really innocent?" I raised my voice and stared at Shen Yixiao.

There are emotions in his eyes that I cannot understand. After being together for so many years, I am finding him more and more difficult to understand.

Under my questioning, Shen Yixiao calmed down his anger. He knew that if he continued to confront me, he would be more likely to be exposed.

"Honey, let's stop arguing, okay? I don't want to quarrel over anyone anymore." His eyes were filled with fatigue. "We finally got to this point, why did it end up like this?"

He asked me? Who should I ask?

Faced with his moving performance, I really had no resonance with him, and even the regrets about my previous relationship were slowly fading away.

I didn't say anything, I just looked at Shen Yixiao as if he was a fool.

He noticed that my reaction was not right and started to panic, "Honey, please don't do this. I would rather you quarrel with me. You make me feel very uneasy."

"Shen Yixiao, even if I believe that you and Secretary Lu are innocent, what about the others? I can't stand being talked about and gossiped about again and again." After calming down my emotions, I said to Shen Yixiao seriously, "You know I have depression, do you still care about it now? You know I have to go to treatment and take medicine every week. I can't be in a bad mood. How can you stimulate me like this?"

My words made Shen Yixiao's face show a strong sense of guilt. He wanted to reach out and hold my hand, but I avoided him.

This small action made him very surprised.

There was disappointment in my eyes, “Chen Yixiao, you said you would treat me well and be loyal to me for the rest of your life, and that you would stand by me unconditionally no matter what happened, but now you seem to have forgotten what you said.”

After saying that, I turned and went upstairs, but Shen Yixiao didn't follow me this time.

After taking a shower, I fell asleep directly on the bed and didn't even want to go downstairs to eat. Shen Yixiao didn't come in to sleep, so I thought he had gone out again. Until I went downstairs to get some water, I found him sitting alone on the sofa, and the ashtray on the coffee table was full of cigarette butts.

Naturally, the living room was filled with smoke and the smell of smoke was suffocating.

Seeing me coming, he got up without saying a word and opened the window and door.

I ignored him and went straight to pour a glass of water. After drinking it, I planned to go upstairs.

"Can we talk for a minute?" Shen Yixiao called me, his voice unusually hoarse.

"What do you want to say?" I asked.

He walked towards me with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes, "Can you go somewhere with me?"

I don't want to go, but I'm curious about where he wants to take me. Is there any place now that is worth going for the two of us to go together?

When he saw that I didn't say anything, he just grabbed my hand and led me out the door.

Fortunately, my pajamas are relatively conservative, so if I really need to wear them in person, I won’t look embarrassed.

After getting in the car, Shen Yixiao fastened my seat belt for me. Neither of us spoke, but just listened to the music in the car. He had removed the songs that Lu Xiaoyun had left behind. Every song played at this time was a song I once liked, but I no longer had the same mood as before.

The car sped through the night and finally arrived at a place that surprised me.

We used to spend time outside of high school.

It was just after evening self-study, and the day students had already come out of the school gate. The boys and girls were filled with the breath of youth, laughing and playing, so beautiful.

Looking at the familiar school uniform, I felt a little melancholy.
